I am a prospective builder and am using the forum and emails to learn
enough to choose a good kit and hopefully use a rotary engine. The
breadth and depth of the issues discussed often surprises me.I
am not
a knowledgeable mechanicbut have learned many things even when
attempting to drink from the proverbial 2-inch fire hose.

Thank you for forum and letting rookies listen in.

As far as a kit aircraft to use as a platform, I'm really partial to the
Van's series, as they are a well proven design with excellent
performance, flying characteristics, and dollar value. I have an RV-4,
but I would recommend one of their side by side models or the RV-8 (or
RV-10) because of the roomier cowl.

Thank you for the insight.I like the Vans kits, especially the RV-10,
and am trying to sort out the different issues.
